Re: Confused names of one or several JG 2 pilot(s)
Given that the names in the Prien group's work are based on the work of Hans Ring and Winifried Bock, one or both of whom are part of that group, and both of whom are/were the 'official' historians of the Lw Fighter Pilot's Association or whatever it's called, the data from those works should probably be considered the authority in these matters. The surviving Lw records, Gen.Qu. and whatever, are replete with errors in the spelling of names, locations, transposition of digits in WNr. and map co-ordinates, etc. Tony's groundbreaking research into Lw claims would certainly be subject to the same problem - the data he transcribed is only as good as originally recorded.
